Features and Benefits

As industries increasingly demand product miniaturization, designers seek space saving solutions without compromising performance. They often face the challenge of delivering greater power than previous generation products while minimizing heat generation. Customers also need safety enhancement solutions that ensure operator protection.  

Using compact, next-generation components to address space-constraint issues, customers can realize maximum space savings without impacting product performance. By addressing overheating challenges with products that minimize heat generation, designers can confidently increase power within their devices. Additionally, solutions that allow for easy connector mating and reliable safety measures are necessary to avoid electrical failures and help prevent harm to operators.

SideWize High-Voltage Connectors feature a right-angle receptacle that eliminates cable bend radius issues when mated to bulkhead connectors, allowing for tremendous space-saving benefits within applications. By using color-coded SideWize connectors, operators can easily mate with connectors and avoid mis-mating issues that lead to electrical failures. Specifically designed for high voltage (1,500V), SideWize connectors deliver higher wattage in comparison to previous designs without increasing heat generation. These connectors also provide touch-proof caps and finger-safe bulkheads to help protect operators from electrical shocks when energized. SideWize High-Voltage Connectors are also low-halogen compliant for global usage and create exceptional value for customers.

Environmental Health and Safety

To protect against electrical hazards, SideWize High-Voltage Connectors leverage a touch-proof and finger-safe design, protecting operators against electrical shock. These low-halogen connectors deliver high wattage without increasing heat generation and protect the environment by helping address current and future legislative requirements.

Easy Connector Mating and Simplified Cable Management

Molex SideWize connectors are designed with color-coded options to help prevent mis-mating and guide operators for proper connections. These wire-to-panel connectors feature a high-voltage, high-current, right-angle design that allows full 360° cable assembly rotation around the bulkhead after mating. This feature simplifies cable routing and ensures easy cable management.

Eliminates cable bend radius; ideal for space-constrained applications
Right-angle receptacles reduce the bending required to route cables, protecting them in tight spaces and mitigating cable strain that can degrade cable performance and durability.

Accelerates system integration for enhanced reliability
Color-coded connectors minimize mis-mating the cable assembly with the bulkhead connector.

Provides easy mating and cable assembly dressing
These connectors offer 360° cable assembly rotation during and after mating, reducing stress on solder joints which can lead to mechanical failure due to cracks and fractures.

Enables quick and easy mating and unmating
The quick-attach and press-to-release receptacle design expedites the process to avoid time delays, risk of damage and user fatigue or errors.

Helps prevent risk of electric shock when handling connectors or cable assemblies
The touch-proof and finger-safe feature allows for safety enhancement, protecting operators from harm. 

Addresses current and future health-related legislative requirements
The low-halogen feature improves environmental friendliness, helping minimize toxic gas emissions, corrosion and harmful pollutants.

Provides design flexibility
The busbar and battery lug attach to bulkhead connectors, helping designers overcome space limitations and maintenance challenges.

Helps prevent liquid and condensation ingress
These connectors have IP67-rated sealed bulkheads at the chassis interface, safeguarding against corrosion and circuit damage.
